Homemade boat? If that is available they will assign numbers.

Most states will title a boat if you have a notarized bill of sale with the HIN listed.

Different states have different procedures and requirements.
In Fla. it can be a real PITA. I have been through it and will never do it again.

If you are in Fla. and want first hand info give me a call. To much to explain via a forum.


P.S. I will NEVER buy a boat with out a clean title again.

MA is the same PITA. Without a clean title to start, you're going to go through hell to get a boat registered or not at all.
